Beginner

Knowing challenges and taking them over is what we preach. In reality making it happen is a true success. Agility as a practice when implemented speaks about the thresholds, we debate and blame the stake holders of the process but in reality, we are failing to deliver the essence of agility to the bottom level. If it is just forcing on to the stake holder we call to practice, we can say we are an agile environment but is it how it is supposed to be?

When asked this question time and again, what we truly understand is we are not considering the integral value agile can offer when the bottom level leaders are the true agilist. Are we really not considering this to happen? How do we work to make this happen? Are frameworks built to fit or should we tailor them for the right fitment?

Making leaders believe that they are not shepherds but leaders of teams they work with, is essence of implementing agility all across the environment. Pragmatism is essential at every level of interaction when we decide to implement agility. If the Scrum Master is the one who has to do it, he should be giving more thought on how to make Agility a reality than keeping it to the documented success stories.
